Buying guide

DR+LAB skincare: how to choose your routine

DR+LAB is a Korean skincare line that leans clinical. The catalog covers the core steps of a treatment routine: a milk cleanser, a soothing hydration ampoule, brightening and revitalizing creams, a daily lotion, and a sunscreen, with a few salon-size body and hair products alongside. We list 36+ DR+LAB products, and many arrive in large 500ml or 1000ml bottles, so this guide walks through what each line does and how to build a routine from it.

What DR+LAB is

DR+LAB sits in the professional end of Korean skincare. The line concentrates on a handful of repeatable steps: cleanse, treat, hydrate, brighten, and protect. The product names tell you the job each one does, like the Hydra-15 Soothing Ampoule for calming hydration or the White Factor creams for brightening. If you prefer to build a routine from a single brand, the range is broad enough to cover most of your shelf.

Cleansing: the milk cleanser

The Activzyme Milk Cleanser is the starting point of the routine and comes in a generous 1000ml bottle. A milk-style cleanser is gentler than a foaming face wash, which suits drier or sensitive skin and makeup removal at the end of the day. Because the bottle is large, it works well as a household or clinic staple where one product gets used daily by more than one person.

Hydration: the Hydra-15 ampoule

The Dr. Lab Hydra-15 Soothing Ampoule is the treatment step. An ampoule is a concentrated serum, and a soothing one is aimed at skin that feels tight, reactive, or stressed. The 500ml size is unusually large for an ampoule, which points at professional use or a long refill cycle at home. Apply it after cleansing and before your cream so the lighter texture sinks in first.

Brightening: the White Factor creams

The White Factor line is DR+LAB's brightening family, and it shows up in more than one form: White Factor Cream in 60ml and 200ml, plus a White Factor Deep Cream in 200ml. Brightening creams work on uneven tone and dullness gradually, over weeks of daily use. The split between a standard cream and a Deep version lets you pick the richness that fits your skin, and the 60ml size is the easy way to trial the line before committing to a 200ml jar.

Treatment creams: Biopepta

The Biopepta Revitalizing Cream (60ml) is the brand's richer treatment cream. A revitalizing peptide-style cream is meant for skin that wants more nourishment and bounce, which makes it a good evening step or a winter swap when lighter creams stop feeling like enough. Pair it with the Hydra-15 ampoule underneath if your skin is both dry and sensitive.

Daily moisture: the lotion

The Daily Pure Lotion (500ml) is the lighter, everyday moisturizer in the range. A lotion sits between an ampoule and a heavy cream in weight, so it suits warmer months, combination skin, or anyone who finds a full cream too much in the morning. The 500ml format again signals it is built for regular, generous use.

Sun protection

The All-Day Defense Sunscreen (50ml) closes the daytime routine. Sunscreen is the step that protects the work the rest of the line does on tone and texture, especially next to the brightening White Factor creams, since sun exposure undoes brightening fastest. Use it as the last step every morning, and reapply through the day when you are outdoors.

Choosing sizes: trial vs salon

Sizing is a real decision with DR+LAB because the same product can come in very different volumes. The White Factor Cream exists in 60ml and 200ml; the cleanser, ampoule, and lotion run to 500ml or 1000ml. Start with a small size to confirm a product agrees with your skin, then move to the large bottle for the ones you reach for daily. The 1000ml cleanser and 500ml ampoule are the value buys once you know they work for you.

Beyond the face: body and hair

A few DR+LAB products step outside facial care, including the Nutritional Vital Massage Cream (1000ml) and the Fresh Kling Care Shampoo (500ml). The massage cream is a salon-size body product, and the shampoo rounds out the brand into hair care. If you already trust DR+LAB on your face, these let you keep the same brand for body and scalp without hunting elsewhere.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • DR+LAB is a Korean skincare line covering the core treatment steps: the Activzyme Milk Cleanser, the Hydra-15 Soothing Ampoule, the White Factor brightening creams, the Biopepta Revitalizing Cream, the Daily Pure Lotion, and the All-Day Defense Sunscreen. A few salon-size body and hair products round out the range. We list 36+ DR+LAB items in total.

  • Both belong to the White Factor brightening line. The standard White Factor Cream comes in 60ml and 200ml, while the White Factor Deep Cream (200ml) is the richer version for skin that wants more nourishment alongside brightening. Try the 60ml standard cream first if you are new to the line, then size up or move to Deep once you know how your skin responds.

  • Apply the Hydra-15 Soothing Ampoule after cleansing and before your cream. As a concentrated, soothing serum it suits skin that feels tight or reactive, and its lighter texture should sink in before you layer a richer cream like Biopepta on top. A little goes a long way, which is part of why it comes in a long-lasting 500ml size.

  • Follow the usual K-beauty order from lightest to heaviest: the Activzyme Milk Cleanser first, then the Hydra-15 ampoule, then the Daily Pure Lotion or a White Factor or Biopepta cream, and the All-Day Defense Sunscreen last every morning. At night you can skip sunscreen and finish with the richer Biopepta cream instead.

  • DR+LAB leans professional, so several products ship in salon-size bottles: the cleanser at 1000ml, the ampoule and lotion at 500ml. These large formats are meant for clinics or for households that go through skincare quickly. If you are buying for one person and trying a product for the first time, start with a smaller size where one is offered, such as the 60ml White Factor Cream.

  • Yes. DR+LAB is a Korean skincare brand, and every product we list is sourced as authentic stock. The line is positioned as professional, treatment-focused skincare, which shows in the ampoule and salon-size formats.
